Chapter 26 The Difficulties of the Barbarians
A bonfire dinner is not considered a joy for the host and the host, and it ended in a hurry. △↗,
The weather is very cold, and the attraction of roasted lamb is limited after all. After tasting it, Xie Yi basically has no appetite.
Moreover, whether it is the selves or the envoys from other countries, there is no common topic. Instead of slandering them, it is better to go back to the camp and sleep well.
So when Yi Nan announced the end of the dinner, Xie Yi stood up immediately and left in the resentful eyes of the envoy of Gaochang.
Go back and have a good dream, maybe you can see Du Xijun and Zheng Liwan in the dream.
Xie Yi was sleeping peacefully, but many people couldn't sleep.
After the Zhenzhu Khan Yi Nan returned to the Khan tent, he paced back and forth, as if something had made him very upset. After a long time, Yi Nan said in a deep voice: "Go and invite the guests!"
"yes!"
The butter and wax in the sweat tent were shining, and a slightly vulgar man was led by his servant. If Sun Wu had opened here, he would definitely recognize that this person was Ashina's association rate.
"I've seen Khan Xue Yantuo!" Asina's association rate seemed vulgar, but her speech was strong and powerful. She was even considered neither humble nor arrogant in front of the Yi Nan, which was very different from his current identity and situation.
Yi Nan seemed a little surprised, probably also felt that Ashina's reaction of the association rate was unexpected, and pondered, "How are you doing? Are you doing well these days?"
"Thank you for the blessing of Khan. You eat well and sleep well in your rank these days, so you don't have to worry about someone chasing you. How can you not be good if you have any beauties from your rank at night?"
Asina's association rate talks freely, as if it was a satisfactory praise, but there were vague complaints, which made her feel a little sour.
Of course, Yi Nan could hear the meaning and whispered: "What? Ben Khan did not summon you in time, so he was dissatisfied?"
"I dare not, I, a ethnic group in the country, dare to be dissatisfied with Xueyantuo Zhenzhu Khan?" Ashina's association expression was obviously unhappy.
"Hmph, okay, sit down and talk. No matter what, you are the grandson of the Turkic prince in the past. For the sake of Tuli Khan, Ben Khan must give you some face."
It had been a while since Ashina joined forces to escape to the grassland. At the earliest, he found the second prince and suddenly lost his fortune and then introduced it to the Zhenzhu Khan Yinan.
But Yi Nan did not see him at the first time, and he stayed there for a long time. Perhaps he was due to some political considerations. But in the eyes of Asina's association rate, Yi Nan intended to neglect him and even humiliate him.
"It's not easy for Zhenzhu Khan to sit down and talk to me!" Asina's association was complaining and sat down.
Yi Nan was quite generous, and was not dissatisfied with these rude behaviors. He said calmly: "Okay, what do you want to say to Ben Khan?"
"What did you say? Khan wants to hear me say something?"
"Hmph, Tsulishi told Ben Khan that you failed to assassinate Li Shimin in Chang'an and were chased and fled to the grassland." Yi Nan said quietly: "Ben Khan is curious, why did you assassinate Li Shimin?"
"Why do you want to assassinate?" Asina's societies said coldly: "I, Turks, were destroyed by him, Li Tang. Isn't the revenge of destroying the country enough?"
Yi Nan sneered, "Is that true? Then why didn't you rebel? You didn't act like an assassination? After being a Shunmin for a few years, I remembered the revenge of destroying the country. If you remember correctly, there were many bloody men in your Ashi's poem, but you wouldn't be among them."
Asina's association rate's face changed slightly, and she was obviously embarrassed.
"Don't say anything about being patient and not being able to express your feelings, waiting for the opportunity, there is no need to hide like this in front of Ben Khan. In the words of the Han people, it's better to open the skylight and say something bright!"
Under the gaze of the Yi Nan, Ashina's association finally spitted: "When Jie Li was strong, his subordinate was the victim, and his brother Tuli was also the victim, so he had to join forces with the Tang army.
After the war, Li Shimin was pretty good to us, but as his brother passed away, the grassland gradually stabilized, and Li Shimin felt that we were not needed anymore, so he used the usual tricks of the Han people to break the bridge and kill the donkey after crossing the river."
"Cut down the bridge across the river, and kill the donkey after the mill!" Yi Nan said these words softly, as if he had a lot of insights.
"That's not it!" Asina's association looked at Yi Nan straight and said leisurely: "If I remember correctly, Li Shimin also borrowed the bridge of Xue Yantuo..."
"Li Shimin wants to tear the bridge?"
"Since he can destroy the Turks, why can't he demolish Xue Yantuo? Besides, your troops' strength today and Jie Li didn't give in at the beginning, can Li Shimin feel at ease?" Asina's association was leisurely and said: "You know what the Han people have always done, so I don't need to say more, right?"
"I, Xue Yantuo, may not be afraid of him, Li Shimin."
"I believe that with Xue Yantuo's strength today, who can easily afford to provoke him?" Asina led the association and said: "But can Khan consider whether he can live in peace with the Tang Dynasty?"
In Chang'an, I often hear Han people say something, "All the kings under the world are kings, and all the kings are kings. If I remember correctly, is your name as the Zhenzhu Khan granted by Li Shimin?"
Yi Nan said vigilantly: "Do you want to provoke this man and help you revenge the Turks?"
"No, with guys like Asuna Smo and Zhishili, the Turks in the east can no longer remember any deep hatred. How can they say revenge?"
Asina led the association and said: "Even if you want to take revenge, finding the Turkic people at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains should be more suitable than finding Xue Yantuo? I just want to use the blood and tears of the Turkic people to tell Khan that Xue Yantuo should not repeat the same mistakes."
Yi Nan pondered and said nothing. Although Ashina's association rate did not admit it, he wanted to use Xue Yantuo's thoughts to reveal it, and even the fool understood it.
But sometimes, being exploited may not be a bad thing. First of all, it depends on whether this matter is beneficial to you. It has to be admitted that Xue Yantuo is very powerful today, but he is full of dangers.
The most powerful enemy must be the Tang Dynasty in the south. Li Shimin is now more and more wary of himself. Not long ago, he received news that Asanosmo once again called Khan and led his troops to station on both sides of the Yellow River. What is the purpose?
Isn’t it just to beware of Xueyantuo and let Ashinasmo use his prestige to attract the people of the grassland to surrender, thereby dismantling Xueyantuo’s strong situation!
If it were the past, it would be enough to be able to share the beauty of the Turks and control the grassland together. However, once you have tasted the taste of being the only one and dominating the grassland, how could you easily give up such honors and ambitions and share the pie for others?
Faced with the Tang Dynasty's approach of step by step, we either sit and wait for death or... As Asina's association said, maybe we should take some thoughts and fight for the survival of the tribe.
However, can it be defeated?
Thinking of the scene where Jie Li, who was so powerful, was defeated by the Tang army and wanted Li Jing and Li Ji to lead his troops to gallop across the grassland and his troops were strong, Yi Nan couldn't help but feel a little angry. (To be continued.)
